Lets hope LS go "bump" sooner than later, the world can do with fewer rubbish carriers around.......

And no I'm not some bitter ex-employee, I'm someone who has been well and truly stitched up by LS, and is well out of pocket due to their intransigence.

So any LS people want to PM me ??? Thought not..

LS= Rubbish

Ex Cargo Clown

We can't be bothered wasting our time and effort on you. You've obviously made up your mind and nothing we say will make a blind bit of difference. How about you PM me if you feel the need to communicate with someone that you seem to have a great desire in putting on the dole.

From your initial post you indicate that you were offered seats the day before and the day after, this would then fulfill the requirement to put you on the next available flight would it not?? After all, there aren't any other flights to BUD from MAN.

Ex Cargo Clown i can't speak for customer services and how you were dealt with, but i work with hundreds of really decent people all intent on getting you to your destination as comfortably and safely as possible.

You say you want LS gone because of your bad experience and as a fellow complainer i'm with you, but middle management have let you down, not your fellow aviators and cabin crew who you seem intent on destroying the lives of.

I personally loath Ryanair and all it stands for, but don't want or wish redundacy on any of their employees.

You going to secure us all with suitable employers that doesn't involve pay cuts or upset to families. I'm sorry you had a bad experience but if you think Jet2 are the only airline to cause somebody aggrevation your a bigger idiot than you already make yourself out to be!

I've been mucked around more times than I care to remember by the 'worlds favorite airline' but I didn't wish damnation on them and their staff because they overbooked seats then lost my bag!

I could rant on and lower myself to your childish level but that would be futile, as I belive everyone else on this thread already holds the same opinion of you.

Ex Cargo Clown, I think what you said was very narrow, And a kind of 'Feet First Attitude'

And to say that at this current uncertain period, Is well

Just because you had a bad experience, Doesn't mean that you have to wish LS an appointment to an 'early grave'

Maybe you work for a carrier that will never die???

Is any Airline Perfect????

dont bite, this ex cargo clown is just fishing for a reaction. All the J2 employees on here have said sorry in one form or another, but he keeps harping on. Let him crawl under his rock and die.

I am very glad that you had a 'bad' experience and I hope you go on to have many more of the same.You read like someone about to machine-gun
everyone in all your posts - your obviously very disturbed and I hope that
you do not inflict your attitude on any family that you might have.

Your posts contain nothing but bile.

Are you Austrian ?

Lo Co must do better

I've had some pretty shoddy treatment by Thomsonfly & the skytrax web-site isn't all that favourable to them. I even complained to the CAA AUC, who pretty much agreed with my complaint, but have no teeth to force TOM to do anything (which they didn't). Ive travelled with TOM / Britannia for over 30 years, but their new "MoL" management style means I won't fly with them again-ever.Having said all that, the actual operating crews are pretty well a good bunch, let down by their customer services. I guess it's fairly much the same now accross the Lo Co sector. ( Air Berlin being a clear exception, IMHO)
I have not experienced any problems with Jet2 (yet).
All you can do is vote with your feet in these circumstances, but its rarely the boys & girls on the aircrafts' fault when things go wrong.

I think the main problem reference the clowns post is as follows.
The problem with low cost airlines in general and this does not single out Jet2, is that if the new EU travel conditions state next available it does not mean on the same carrier.
The way l see it and l may well be incorrect, is you get put on a flight that gets you to your destination ASAP, it might mean flying by BA or who ever and might also mean a change on the way, for say via T5 at LHR.
The problem at the moment is that over 90% of all airlines seem to ignore the law and try and get away with it and are hoping that the individual gives up and does not take them to court.
This only my opinion but the Consumer Association has over the last few years also pointed out that airlines try and hide their responsibility to the travelling public behind the complex legislation.

One of the conditions of any airline booking is that you accept THEIR Terms and Conditions which are easily accessed from the airlines' home page.

According to Jet2's T&C's, EX CARGO CLOWN should have been offered a choice of three options when Jet2 decided not to operate a flight after a booking had been made.

1. Transport to destination 'AT THE EARLIEST OPPORTUNITY ON ONE OF THEIR FLIGHTS'
2. Re-route to destination 'WITHIN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME ON ONE OF THEIR FLIGHTS OR MUTUALLY AGREED MEANS AND CLASS OF TRANSPORTATION'
3. Full refund.

If EX CARGO CLOWN has not been offered ALL THREE options then he/she has valid grounds for complaint, unless the prefice to these options 'Except as otherwise provided by the Warsaw Convention OR the Montreal Convention OR EC Regulations' provides JET2 a legal get-out clause.

How much longer can Jet2 get out of there 733's before there going to have to replace them?
Will it be 73G'S and 738's they will replace them with?

They should get some of the 73Gs leaving the U2 fleet.

If they were to buy new a/c I would go for a three type fleet (that is if they plan on lasting, which hopefully they will!):

B737-700 (Smaller bases and thinner routes)
B737-900ER (757 replacement for European flights such as MAN/LBA/NCL/BFS bases)
B787-3 (Trans-atlantic flights etc. plus some MAN/LBA flights to AGP/PMI etc.)

Will probably not happen but we will see. The main advantage of the current fleet in the -300QCs which are very lucrative for the airline.

733 longevity

In the current climate, I'm sure those 737s will keep going for sometime yet. Heck, if SAS and Spanair can keep those noisy MD83 flying, then Jet2 will have no prob!

Just out of curiosity, how much will it cost to get a second hand B737/700 and how much scrap value can you get for a B737/300?
